Biology: Pikachu
is a short, chubby rodent Pokémon. It is covered in yellow fur and its ears are
long and pointed with black tips. It has a small mouth, brown eyes, and two red
circles on its cheeks. There are pouches inside its cheeks where it stores
electricity. It has short forearms with five fingers on each paw, and its feet
each have three toes. It has two brown stripes on its back and its tail is in
the shape of a lightning bolt with a patch of brown fur at the base. A female
will have a V-shaped notch at the end of its tail, which looks like the top of
a heart. It is classified as a quadruped, but it has been known to stand and
walk on its hind legs.

The anime
has shown that Pikachu sometimes travel in groups. It raises its tail to check
its surroundings, and is occasionally struck by lightning in this position.
Living in forested areas, Pikachu is found foraging for berries it roasts with
electricity to make them tender enough to eat. It has been observed eating and
sometimes destroying telephone poles, wires, and other electronic equipment.

Pikachu
is able to release electric discharges of varying intensity. Pikachu has been
known to build up energy in its glands, and will need to discharge to avoid
complications. It is also able to release energy through its tail, which acts
as a grounding rod, as well as recharging fellow Pikachu with electric shocks.
Pikachu can also electrify itself to use its signature move Volt Tackle. When
threatened, it looses electric charges from its sacs, and a group can build and
cause lightning storms. It is found mostly in forests, where a sure sign that
Pikachu inhabits a location is patches of burnt grass.

Squirtle :

SQUIRTLE-ANIMATION

Biology: Squirtle is a small Pokémon that resembles a
light blue turtle. While it typically walks on its two short legs, it has been
shown to run on all fours in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It has large brown eyes
and a slightly hooked upper lip. Each of its hands and feet have three pointed
digits. The end of its long tail curls inward. Its body is encased by a tough
shell that forms and hardens after birth. This shell is brown on the top, pale
yellow on the bottom, and has a thick white ridge between the two halves.

Squirtle's
shell is a useful tool. It can withdraw into the shell for protection or for
sleeping, and its grooved, rounded shape helps to reduce water resistance when
this Pokémon swims. Squirtle can spray foamy water from its mouth with great
accuracy. Squirtle is scarce in the wild, although it can be found around small
ponds and lakes. The anime has shown that it can be found living on secluded
islands with other members of its evolutionary line.

Bulbasaur:

BULBASAUR-ANIMATION

Biology: Bulbasaur
is a small, quadruped Pokémon that has blue-green skin with darker green
patches. It has red eyes with white pupils and pointed, ear-like structures on
top of its head. Its snout is short and blunt, and it has a wide mouth. A pair
of small, pointed teeth are visible in the upper jaw when its mouth is open.
Each of its thick legs ends with three sharp claws. On its back is a green
plant bulb, which is grown from a seed planted there at birth. The bulb
provides it with energy through photosynthesis as well as from the
nutrient-rich seeds contained within.

As
mentioned in the anime, starter Pokémon are raised by Breeders to be
distributed to new Trainers. Having been domesticated from birth, Bulbasaur is
regarded as both a rare and well-behaved Pokémon. It is known to be extremely
loyal, even after long-term abandonment. Bulbasaur has also shown itself to be
an excellent caretaker, even having a special technique called the
"Bulba-by." To perform this technique, Bulbasaur uses its vines to
pick up a young Pokémon and soothingly rocks it in the air. It is found in
grasslands and forests throughout the Kanto region. However, due to Bulbasaur's
status as starter Pokémon, it is hard to come by in the wild and generally
found under the ownership of a Trainer. It has been observed that a Bulbasaur's
bulb will flash blue when it is ready to evolve. If it does not want to evolve,
it struggles to resist the transformation. Many Bulbasaur gather every year in
a hidden garden in Kanto to evolve into Ivysaur in a ceremony led by a
Venusaur.

4) Charizard:

CHARIZARD-ANIMATION

Biology: Charizard is a draconic, bipedal Pokémon. It

rectangular head. There are two fangs visible in the upper jaw when its mouth
is closed. Two large wings with teal undersides sprout from its back, and a
horn-like appendage juts out from the third joint of each wing. Charizard's
arms are short and skinny compared to its robust belly, and each limb has three
white claws. It has stocky legs and cream-colored soles under its feet.

As Mega
Charizard X, its body and legs appear more physically fit, though its arms
remain thin. Its skin turns black with a sky blue underside extending from the
lower jaw to the tip of the tail. Two spikes with blue tips curve upward from
the front and back of each shoulder, while the tips of its horns sharpen, turn
blue, and curve slightly upward. Its brow and claws are larger, its snout is
shorter, and its eyes are now red with white pupils. It has two small, fin-like
spikes under each horn and two more down its lower neck. The lower trims of its
wings are divided into large, rounded points and each third joint is adorned
with a claw-like spike. Mega Charizard X breathes blue flames out the sides of
its mouth, and the flame on its tail now burns blue with increased heat.

CHARIZARD-ANIMATION

When Mega
Evolved as Mega Charizard Y, this Pokémon becomes more sleek and expansive in
appearance, but retains its normal coloration. However, it now has white
pupils. It has three pointed horns on the back of its head, the middle of which
is longer. Its shorter snout has larger fangs and a ridge on the nose. Its neck
is shorter and its hands are much smaller, but its torso and legs are longer.

long pointed ears, and a small black nose. This Pokémon is rarely found in the
wild, and is mostly only found in cities and towns. However, Eevee is said to
have an irregularly shaped genetic structure that allows it to adapt to many

eyes with slit pupils, two pointed teeth in the upper jaw, and a gold oval coin
embedded in its forehead. Its ears are black with brown interiors, and are
flanked with an additional pair of long whiskers. Meowth is a quadruped with
the ability to walk on its hind legs; while the games always depict Meowth on
two legs, the anime states that Meowth normally walks on all fours. It can
freely manipulate its claws, retracting them when it wants to move silently.
The tip of its tail curls tightly.

Meowth is
attracted to round and shiny objects, and has the unique ability to produce
coins using Pay Day. It is known to wander about city streets and pick up
anything that sparkles, including loose change. Upon finding a sparkling

that is bent in the middle. Each paw has three toes and a round, pink pad.

Arcanine
is a fiercely brave and loyal Pokémon. It is capable of running 6,200 miles
(10,000 kilometers) in 24 hours with a speed and grace reminiscent of flight.
Arcanine has long been admired for its beauty and speed, and anyone who hears
its bark will grovel before it. The source of its power is a flame blazing
wildly inside its body. In the anime, it was shown that it stashes food in its
mane and carries it to its nest for its young. Arcanine lives on prairies, and
Pokémon Snap has also shown it living in active volcanoes.

8) Horsea:

curled tail. Its eyes are red and its ridged belly and dorsal fin are
cream-colored. It has a long, tubular mouth and three spike-like projections on
either side of its head.

It is
highly adept in the water, using its dorsal fin to swim in any direction while
facing forward. It can use its tail as both a balance and an anchor when caught
in a strong current. In safer environments, it uses its tail to play with other
members of its species. If Horsea senses danger, it sprays water or dense black
ink from its mouth at its attacker. It can shoot ink more precisely at insects
flying above the surface of the water. Horsea feeds on insects and moss
gathered from rocks. It nests in coral reefs and islands throughout the ocean.
Many Eggs are laid every year, and the young are raised by the male Horsea
rather than the female.
